[MUD-Dev] OpenCroquet

[Bruce Mitchener]

While they have a pretty poor website, Open Croquet may be of
interest to some of the list population.

    "Croquet is a computer software architecture built from the
     ground up with a focus on deep collaboration between teams
     of users. It is a totally open, totally free, highly portable
     extension to the Squeak programming system. Croquet is a
     complete development and delivery platform for doing real
     collaborative work. There is no distinction between the
     user environment and the development environment.

    "Croquet is also a totally ad hoc multi-user network. It
     mirrors the current incarnation of the World Wide Web in
     many ways, in that any user has the ability to create
     and modify a "home world" and create links to any other
     and modify a "home world" and create links to any other
     and modify a "home world" and create links to any other
     and modify a "home world" and create links to any other
     such world. But in addition, any user, or group of users
     (assuming appropriate sharing privileges), can visit and
     work inside any other world on the net. Just as the World
     Wide Web has links between the web pages, Croquet allows
     fully dynamic connections between worlds via spatial
     portals. The key differences are that Croquet is a fully
     dynamic environment, everything is a collaborative object,
     and Croquet is fully modifiable at all times."
